The comedic bits were one of the few highlights for me in TLJ. Weird how positive you came out of it. RoS was one of the few movies I’ve watched where I dislike it during the middle of the runtime. I thought the online reception of it was exaggerated but I came out thinking “I get it now”.
Also, the plot points you mentioned I wanted to like when they were shown but they were always a let down. Like the Palpatine fight with the cultists watching was so thematic but the actual fight was so bad. The light saber toss with the psychic link was cool though (even if it did make my eyebrow raise out of my forehead in how odd the rules are for it).

Fair enough - different strokes for different folks, I guess. And my positive view on RoS is certainly not one shared by many people! :-)
